UK government has confirmed a number of changes to January’s planned move to Brexit 2, with certain elements now being delayed.

We understand that the overall move to full customs controls and customs checks remains unchanged from the original 1st January 2022 plan. However, due to the wider impact of the pandemic, some of the controls for sectors like Agrifood, and Sanitary and Phytosanitary goods, have now been delayed.

• The requirement for pre-notification of agri-food imports will be introduced on 1 January 2022 as opposed to 1 October 2021.

• The new requirements for Export Health Certificates, which were due to be introduced on 1 October 2021, will now be introduced on 1 July 2022.

• Phytosanitary Certificates and physical checks on SPS goods at Border Control Posts, due to be introduced on 1 January 2022, will now be introduced on 1 July 2022.

• The requirement for Safety and Security declarations on imports will be introduced as of 1 July 2022 as opposed to 1 January 2022.

MultiFreight, in conjunction with Vartan Consultancy, will be holding a live webinar on 30th September, from 10am for approx 1 hour, to explain and discuss the changes customers need to be ready for.
